As far as nights to remember, Iman Shumpert’s effort for the Knicks against the Nets and Deron Williams on Friday was not one to tell the grandchildren.

Williams toasted Shumpert like an English muffin all game, finishing with 29 points on 10-of-15 shooting in the Nets’ 110-99 victory. One question was answered: Williams is healthy. One question remained: When are the Knicks getting a healthy point guard back?

“I’m going to take this one,” said Shumpert, who stood up, stuck out his chest and took every hit. “Deron Williams got to do whatever he wanted out there. I got to get better with controlling the ball after him coming off the ball screen. I didn’t do a good job of that tonight.

“As a reflection of that, our bigs got in foul trouble, they hit 3s from everywhere on the court because he kept getting into that paint. I [have] got to do a better job of getting over the ball screens and not letting him get into our defense.”

Shumpert, normally a shooting guard these days, was given the start at point guard largely for his defensive ability. But Williams quickly torched that notion.

“My teammates aren’t used to be me begging for help. I’m usually able to get over the screens and find a way,” Shumpert said. “Tonight he had his way with me. I’ll take that.

“They did a good job of keeping me uncomfortable.I never really got into him. He got to any spot on the floor that he wanted. He was comfortable from the get-go, knocked down a couple of shots, got his confidence going. I didn’t cut his water off at all.”
